    G for “Gnat” is bad. It should be something that could be a “G” sound or something else.

    Like “G” for “Geoffrey”.

    This …is not the NATO alphabet and I also don’t get the joke, aside from the Archer references.

    What gives?

          It’s also really thrown off by a couple of them being normal or at least reasonable, like B - Bravo. In a way a liked, at least.

        Almost crying trying to explain why it’s more convenient to pronounce GIF with a hard G, while people pronounce it with J, and how it makes it easy to confuse with the JIF format
